Which of the following is a best practice for organizing objects in Cloud Storage?

  1. Use a flat structure with all objects in a single bucket.

  2. Use a hierarchical structure with multiple buckets and folders.

  3. Use a combination of flat and hierarchical structures.

  4. It doesn't matter how you organize objects in Cloud Storage.


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Using a hierarchical structure with multiple buckets and folders helps to organize and manage objects more effectively, making it easier to find and access them.

What is the recommended way to upload large objects to Cloud Storage?

  1. Use the gsutil cp command.

  2. Use the gsutil rsync command.

  3. Use the gsutil multipart command.

  4. Use the gsutil compose command.


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

The gsutil multipart command is designed for uploading large objects to Cloud Storage in a reliable and efficient manner.

Which of the following is a best practice for securing objects in Cloud Storage?

  1. Use public access controls.

  2. Use private access controls.

  3. Use a combination of public and private access controls.

  4. It doesn't matter how you secure objects in Cloud Storage.


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Using private access controls ensures that only authorized users can access objects in Cloud Storage.

What is the recommended way to protect objects in Cloud Storage from accidental deletion?

  1. Enable versioning for the bucket.

  2. Enable object locking for the objects.

  3. Use a combination of versioning and object locking.

  4. It doesn't matter how you protect objects in Cloud Storage from accidental deletion.


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Enabling versioning for the bucket and object locking for the objects provides multiple layers of protection against accidental deletion.

Which of the following is a best practice for managing the lifecycle of objects in Cloud Storage?

  1. Use lifecycle rules to automatically delete objects after a certain period of time.

  2. Use lifecycle rules to automatically move objects to a different storage class.

  3. Use a combination of lifecycle rules to delete and move objects.

  4. It doesn't matter how you manage the lifecycle of objects in Cloud Storage.


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Using a combination of lifecycle rules allows you to automate the management of objects in Cloud Storage, optimizing storage costs and ensuring that objects are deleted or moved when they are no longer needed.

What is the recommended way to monitor the usage of Cloud Storage?

  1. Use the Cloud Storage console.

  2. Use the gsutil command.

  3. Use the Cloud Storage API.

  4. Use a combination of the above.


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Using a combination of the Cloud Storage console, the gsutil command, and the Cloud Storage API provides comprehensive monitoring capabilities for Cloud Storage usage.

Which of the following is a best practice for optimizing the performance of Cloud Storage?

  1. Use a CDN to cache objects.

  2. Use a load balancer to distribute requests across multiple servers.

  3. Use a combination of CDN and load balancer.

  4. It doesn't matter how you optimize the performance of Cloud Storage.


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Using a combination of CDN and load balancer helps to reduce latency and improve the overall performance of Cloud Storage.

What is the recommended way to reduce the cost of Cloud Storage?

  1. Use a lower storage class.

  2. Use lifecycle rules to automatically delete objects after a certain period of time.

  3. Use a combination of lower storage class and lifecycle rules.

  4. It doesn't matter how you reduce the cost of Cloud Storage.


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Using a combination of lower storage class and lifecycle rules allows you to optimize storage costs by storing objects in the most cost-effective storage class and deleting them when they are no longer needed.

Which of the following is a best practice for securing access to Cloud Storage?

  1. Use IAM roles to grant access to objects.

  2. Use signed URLs to grant temporary access to objects.

  3. Use a combination of IAM roles and signed URLs.

  4. It doesn't matter how you secure access to Cloud Storage.


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Using a combination of IAM roles and signed URLs provides a flexible and secure way to control access to objects in Cloud Storage.

What is the recommended way to troubleshoot issues with Cloud Storage?

  1. Use the Cloud Storage console.

  2. Use the gsutil command.

  3. Use the Cloud Storage API.

  4. Use a combination of the above.


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Using a combination of the Cloud Storage console, the gsutil command, and the Cloud Storage API provides comprehensive troubleshooting capabilities for Cloud Storage issues.

Which of the following is a best practice for backing up data in Cloud Storage?

  1. Use a backup service.

  2. Use a third-party tool.

  3. Use a combination of backup service and third-party tool.

  4. It doesn't matter how you back up data in Cloud Storage.


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Using a combination of backup service and third-party tool provides a comprehensive and reliable solution for backing up data in Cloud Storage.

What is the recommended way to migrate data to Cloud Storage?

  1. Use the gsutil command.

  2. Use the Cloud Storage Transfer Service.

  3. Use a third-party tool.

  4. Use a combination of the above.


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Using a combination of the gsutil command, the Cloud Storage Transfer Service, and a third-party tool provides a flexible and efficient solution for migrating data to Cloud Storage.

Which of the following is a best practice for managing encryption keys for Cloud Storage?

  1. Use a cloud-managed encryption key.

  2. Use a customer-managed encryption key.

  3. Use a combination of cloud-managed and customer-managed encryption keys.

  4. It doesn't matter how you manage encryption keys for Cloud Storage.


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Using a combination of cloud-managed and customer-managed encryption keys provides a flexible and secure solution for managing encryption keys for Cloud Storage.

What is the recommended way to monitor the security of Cloud Storage?

  1. Use the Cloud Storage console.
